Fiesta4Hope August 2021 Newsletter

August 2021

Dear Fiesta4Hope Friends and Followers, 

 

Over the last two years, the name Fiesta4Hope has floated around the ears of those in our area. Since our founding in 2018, Fiesta has grown from a high school summer project to a legal nonprofit organization with a clear vision and concrete community. We are endlessly grateful to those who have supported us from the start, and we continue to welcome new supporters with open arms. In this letter, we want to share with you where our organization is now and summarize the goals that we are tirelessly working towards.

Our BLM Campaign

The mission of Fiesta4Hope is to provide support to vulnerable communities through the promotion of sustainability. The Black community is no exception to this mission. We strive to prioritize love, inclusion, justice, and respect. 

We found the Children's Defense Fund to be the intersection between supporting vulnerable communities through sustainability, promoting education, teen empowerment, and our desire to take action during recent push for the BLM movement.
